Template:Sandbox: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 01:31, 16 March 2009

Often you need to test an idea for a template, so try it out here.

I haven't found a sensible way of fully testing templates by themselves (as they will not get included in the edited version, but rather the saved version). -- User:Xavi

The idea of this {{Sandbox}} page is to have that, a simple testing template that will not interfere with others and avoid leaving a trail of botched attempts.

If you try out the template here, you have to save the template and then preview to see how it works. You can instead edit Test sandbox template.

Please leave this comment/text above for others to read.

Testing: subpage parsing

Goal: Given "Feature roadmap/Name of feature", return "Name of feature"; Given "Just a title", return "Just a title"
